Thanks, Paul.
Congrats to Stefan
and Markus.
The EbNaut Sender is
prepared for length 5, retaining period 30.
But: this afternoon the sky suddenly
turned from blue to dark grey, so possibly the TX stays off.
We will see.
Uwe
Uwe,
... me too ;-)
I was actually surprised about the successful decode because the
nighttime carrier was well visible in Heidelberg but not at all in my
spectrogram.
Anyway both our
decodes were close to the limit, so for the next step I would suggest
to try 5 char but stay with 30 sec symbols. Due to the FEC and CRC
overhead, going from 3 to 5 characters (1.667 x payload) will increase
the total time only by a factor of 1.23 so we already loose 1.32 dB
sensitivity. Shortening the symbols from 30 to 20 seconds would cost
another 1.76 dB.
All the best,
Markus (DF6NM)

Hello Uwe,
Thanks for the VLF transmission. No problem to decode the message! See
attachment.
If Markus can decode and no other station wants to try, maybe we can
try 20s symbols and 5 characters, your callsign for example :-)
As you probably saw, i saw your carrier on 8269.99 Hz in my 6000 window
in the city but not in the forest. Either it is a propagation
phenomenon that i don't understand yet or there is still something
wrong with the drift calibration. I will today go on the tree again to
re-configure the GPS-module and see if this makes a difference...
